Re: Selling my car

If your not sure about something when working on a car, ask someone, if your still not sure, see if someone will show you. Thats how i learned. The only way your gonna learn is to do it. dont take any shortcuts. do things right the first time. the only thing your get when you take short cuts is a sh...

Re: s-10 crew cab.net stickers?

Ill jump on that bandwagon. I drive all over Pittsburgh and have only seen 3 other than mine 2 are the same color and i saw a dark blue one a few days ago. Its kinda nice not driving a truck that everyone else has. I also have a friend that makes vinyl decals.

Re: General Questions about the ZR5 Sonoma's/S-10's

sorry for the late post. I Bought mine about a month ago. 2002 LS, it has every option BUT the ZR5 package. 64,000 miles, heated leather, CD and tape deck, undercoated like crazy. I ended up paying 9500. i dont think 8995 was all that bad. but thats just my 2 cents

Re: Odd Thumping coming from the left front *solved

so the thumping is back, i had a friend look under the truck at the a arm while i pumped the brakes in drive and the control arm he said moves a little. im assuming the bushing is bad since the bolts were tight. is this normal? how hard are the bushings to replace? this is the first time ive ever ha...

Re: Odd Thumping coming from the left front

One of the Stabilizer bar end links was broken, i replaced both of them and the thumping stopped. Im not exactly sure how the mechanic and the alignment shop missed that. i replaced them with MOOG end links. front end seems alittle tighter than it was before. Thanks for the info on the torsion bars ...
